I've recently began collecting Dyckia. I just love how they have the qualities of both bromeliads and cactus/succulents; my favorite plants. The Dyckia pictured is one of my best growers. It tripled in size and threw out tons of pups this summer. I just repotted 8 pups! I checked plant files and my plants looks like either D. Morris Hobbs, or D. Fosteriana. Can someone ID this plant for me? The plants looks a bit more red in the picture. It's more of an eggplant color...blackish maroon.
